The front wheel bearings needed replacing on my car so I continued on with the repair I started yesterday where I was at this point just getting started.
Working away gets the job done
After a couple hours or so I got the bearing spindle off. It took quite a few tools to succeed and some patience too.
The part
This is the spindle with the bearings in it I need to get out and install the new bearings and seals after cleaning things up a bit.
The bearing came out without much trouble. I greased and installed the new parts and all was good up to this point.
Trouble
But when I tried to get the axle shaft back in the bearing spindle it wouldn’t go. It was late in the day so I decided to wait until tomorrow when I’m fresh and take it apart and try again.
Stuck
l was stuck at this point trying to get the axle back in but it was stuck and wouldn’t slide into the bearings.
Hauling mulch to the potatoes
I quit that job for the day and went out and hauled a few more wheelbarrow loads of mulch to the seed potatoes I’m planting.
It was late evening by then so I did a bit of chair hopping and that was it for me today. Got some work done.
The mulch will sure nurture those seed potatoes. You’ll have them coming out your ears! Mom used to tell us we had enough dirt in our ears to grow potatoes! funny how i just thought of that. haha
good luck with mechanics stuff. :)
Nice to get some work done, now good luck with the axel, maybe it will just go together real easy today!

Header Pictures
There are over a hundred pictures that are served up randomly every time you visit or change pages. They are of earlier pictures of interest and also some just to remind me of things.
A Sony AX33 4K, a video camera that takes stills too. What am I doing with that? I take pictures from my Kayak a lot. I found I was missing interesting shots, because my pic was being processed in my camera, before it would let me take another pic. Since I like to take what I call action stills, I bought this camera to take videos, that I could make stills out of, but, as a bonus, this camera also came with buttons to just take stills and that's what I mostly do, unless something is real interesting or too far away for my still zooms. My digilat zoom setting for video goes to two hundred x, and sometimes I need that, but usually, I only use the 10x lens zoom. Because this camera is HD and 4K, the quality has to be real good and it has a lot of stabilizers on it which really helps out a lot for taking pics on the water.
The other thing it has that is a must is a view finder and I had to buy Sony's top of the line cam to get it. This is a must for taking pics on the water, as you must hold the camera as still as posible and putting that eye piece to the eye forms a tripod with your arms that helps a lot. The eye piece is also a must as it works way better than a LED screen to see what you are taking a picture of in the daylight as the LED screens wash out easily in sunlight.
I also have another video camera, a Canon VIXIA G30. I use them both to mostly take stills. The Sony takes higher resolution stills than the G30. That was a bit of a disappointment as I bought the G30 to replace an older camera I dunked in the river, but then had to buy the Sony to get higher still picture resolution that the G30 was lacking.
The mulch will sure nurture those seed potatoes. You’ll have them coming out your ears! Mom used to tell us we had enough dirt in our ears to grow potatoes! funny how i just thought of that. haha
